[PATCH] GHES: Fix cached error-status

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In ghes_estatus_cached() we currently have a situation where
we can break out of the loop before examining all the possible
estatus_caches. Move the 'break' statement inside of the 'if',
such that an otherwise possibly missed cache is acknowledged
and the function returns the proper value.

Introduced by 152cef40a808d (ACPI, APEI, GHES, Error records
content based throttle).

Hi,

I found this accidentally and have no idea if it is correct, but
seems to be a case of a misplaced break. If this is not the case,
then it is a very weird way of using a for-loop, and should probably
be rewritten -- and there are other funky places in this file...

100% untested.

Thanks,
Davidlohr
